[Rusty EK]

Thanks guys , off to town today to pick up the lowered springs and to get bits to make the forward trailing arms for the diff , wish I had Kidds dad to make these bits for me

[Mick]

wish I had Kidds dad to make these bits for me

i think everybody does when it come to fab work although i'll settle for you so i can get floors in my ute

[black duck]

Greetings Rusty. from what i have seen on this build from the start, i think that you are more than capable as a fabricator and it shows in the quality of your work. I personly think you are doing a fantasic job and dont be afraid to sneak into the fridge for a bit of inspiration,

keep up the great work.
cheers BLACK DUCK

[Rusty EK]

am quite partial to a bit of inspiration , have just realized there is a car show on down here tomorrow,they are cruising up the East coast to Bicheno and then having a show and shine , wish my car was going , so it is a day off tomorrow and probably one or two cans of inspiration over lunch at Bicheno, and will be into the Ute on Sunday , thanks for that black duck ,but don't think these bits will be as flash as kiids Though .

[black duck]

Hey Rusty. as far as the kiids build is going ,i think its great cos i am the one sitting back getting inspired while the kiid does most of the fab work.

CHEERS BLACK DUCK

AWESOME WORK MATE

[Rusty EK]

G,day all

Got a bit more done on the Ute this week , got the springs back in and made up the trailing arms . Have got new brake lines made up and installed all the way through to the front , so the diff is all together and finished .



Figured out the hand brake as well and got it working , going to make a cover over the top to cover the cable .



also got the Torana front blasted and into primer

Next week is get it back down off the spit and start putting the front end back together.

Hey Rusty,

Awesome work mate, not far to go now.

Did you get your bushes yet ??

Handbrake ! that pretty much creates a bit of brain strain on most cars, well done looks good.

Regards Greg
